Tim

 You should not be running with broken ribs I had to have 12 weeks out.............compression tops do help.....My outfit is difficult but so me

Pizzaman

Yes our society is all too quick to sue and yes somethings are worth more in life....I guess some of us have strong principles....everyone thought I should have claimed I felt I was a last warrior fighting my corner as they were putting pressure on me.

Mark

No to the races i would have done the half in cardiff but somehow I am running Abingdon marathon but if training goes wrong I will be at Cardiff instead

Doing the Cardiff 10K

Welshpoppy

Good god were have you  all gone????????????

Shall have to talk to myself

Checks too see if i have bad breath or needs a bath........

I am going to go to cardiff to cheer myself up tomorrow...............I may spend lots of money as need retail therapy and not running kit either!!!!

mad mark

I am still here,drinking a glass of rose before my paella.Half looking forwarde to the neyland 10 k on sun but a bit worried about the heat,

Welshpoppy

OOh how nice been a bad week so on a glass of white wine and  not eaten...dont even feel like it but wine seems to hit the spot at the moment.......

Good luck not run the Neyland 10k and sadly looks like will be hot hot hot

Are you any good in the heat?

I wilt badly and run rubbish in heat

old father tim

Blimey WP, you woke us up !

Clearly we've all been making the most of the weather and not wasting time on-line. Something I never do, oh no sireee..

I'm multi-tasking ; drinking beer, and finishing off the Castles Relay race programme (behind schedule..), and feeling guilty (club dinner dance tonight, but I'm shy...), and thinking about popping down to Tescos tomorrow (for the Cardiff Blackweir 5k TT). I'm running like rubbish at the moment for various reasons biological, and am in excellent shape for another fine PW.

Whats the neyland 10k mark ?

Welshpoppy

Tim

I am doing Castles this year as a vet not sure which leg yet?

mad mark

I love sunny weather,but not sure if i like running in the heat,went out yesterday and found it really hard.

Will find out on sunday.

mad mark

Neyland 10 k is in Pembrokeshire Tim,not done it before but sounds good and its a lovely area.

Maddy.

I am thinking about moving to Newport - in fact this morning I was set on the idea then this nice recruitment consultant rang me up and told me about a job that would be a fantastic balance for me in the Black Country - I am all of a dither now

Welshpoppy

My Boyfriend at the moment ( who knows how long it last????works in Newport........

I have cut knees after fall and not much sympathy from B/F as a none runner

Maddy.

Charming sometimes aren't they

Welshpoppy

Welshpoppy

That is true Maddy.........But honesty would be good

Sill me  that would be silly

old father tim

That's great news WP - make sure they don't give you Drovers !!!

Welshpoppy

Will make sure I don't get drovers run...thanks Tim

Tom.

Tim, I ran the Blackweir 5k last weekend - pretty pedestrian, but something to build on. I think I must have run that loop a thousand times, but it still hurt like hell last Saturday!i

Well done MM on 15th place especially in the heat!!

mad mark

Thanks Poppy,I think everyone is struggling with the heat,as usual we have gone from winter to summer very suddenly                       

Getting up to run at 6 am is great once you can get into the habit,especially in the light mornings. 

Welshpoppy

Mark , yes that is so true no time to aclimitise at all.

I run to work at 7am and run after work so just need to get into routinue  and do longer run in morning to beat the heat.

First morning tomorrow

Not sure about position. I was happy as it was 2 mins slower than my personal best, the heat and the hills were a challenge. 59 Minutes, Im not fast but I always get there lol!!! Well done Mark!

mad mark

Well done Matt,they were tough little hills and coming back along the path seemed to go on forever,I think everyone was a minute or two slower than normal.When is the next race for you?
